Welcome to ENG 181: Journeying through Faerie. The short video above introduces students to the class theme and key terms while explaining two major projects.

Mirroring the fairy tale and romance convention of the hero returning home, students will develop videos like the one above targeting a non-academic audience.
Partnering with either a local childcare or early education center on or near campus, we will facilitate an event where students can read their stories to their target audience: young children.
I am a PhD student in the English department at Emory University. I previously completed a certificate in university teaching and an MA in English at Oregon State University with an emphasis on Victorian poetry and the relational nature of literature.
In a past life, I was a management studies researcher, focusing on public sector innovation, service-dominant logic, and ambiculturalism. You can find my research on innovation and creative synthesis over at the Academy of Management Review.
My research interests include Victorian poetry, medieval influences on Victorian literature, the theological turn, and dialogical models of reading. Specifically, I examine the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins, within its historical and religious context, in dialogue with poetic tradition and contemporary poets and novelists. Following Martin Buber’s philosophy, I explore ways that meaning is neither authorial nor interpreted but relational.
